Displacement for graphics is supported in recent versions of GeoServer
(since 2.7
I believe).

About the ability to avoid drawing all labels at the end, it has been
discussed,
in normal situation it just breaks maps big time, as the WMS user can
compose
them in any order they want and labels need to stay on top to be legible,
but we understand there are cases in which this might not be desirable (for
example when labels are not really labels, but more parts of symbols).

For this we'd need to add and code support for a new "drawImmediately"
vendor
option. So far no one has provided either their own coding time to make it
a reality,
or funding to allow core developers to add this features during working
hours.
Maybe you could be the one? ;-)

Cheers
Andrea
